"It wasn't an accident?!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang's face suddenly changed, his eyes filled with incredible shock.

Gu Ranle nodded. She took a deep breath, as if she wanted to let out all the anger and determination in her heart. Her voice was soft but revealed an unquestionable strength.

"Well, he was murdered. Moreover, the murderers were all people he had treated with all his heart."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang fell into a long silence. The only sound in the house could be the occasional whisper of the night wind coming from outside the window.

He asked softly, "Do you need help, Grandpa?"

Gu Ranle shook her head and said directly and firmly: "No need."

As a daughter, it is her responsibility to avenge her father without relying on anyone else.

Moreover, she had no intention of telling Mr. Jiang that his daughter was one of the murderers for the time being.

"Child, if you need grandpa's help, you must tell grandpa, don't bear it alone."

"it is good."

"If anyone bullies you, you must tell Grandpa."

Although he cannot protect her all her life, as long as he is alive, he will not let anyone bully her.

"it is good."

After having dinner at the Jiang family, Gu Ranle chatted with Mr. Jiang for a while and then got up to leave.

It was not too late, so she was not in a hurry to return to the Luo family.

Thinking about the white SUV in the afternoon, she guessed that the other party would definitely take further action.

Usually, if trouble doesn't find her, she will find the person who is causing the trouble.

Now that trouble has come to her doorstep, how could she just sit back and do nothing?

She deliberately slowed down and walked slowly in the night.

Sure enough, not long after, an uninvited figure quietly followed in the rearview mirror.

This time it was no longer the eye-catching white SUV, but an all-black sedan.

The driver was fully armed, with his hat pulled down and sunglasses covering most of his face, looking particularly strange under the night sky.

Gu Ranle curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer. She did not speed up to escape, but drove more leisurely, as if she was completely unaware of being followed behind her.

The game begins.

Gu Ranle drove to a quiet and open area in the suburbs.

The roads here are so wide that they seem to accommodate all thoughts. They are sparsely populated, providing excellent convenience for the next actions.

She parked the car steadily on the side of the road, and the sound of the wheels rubbing against the ground was particularly clear in the silence.

As expected, the black car that was following her also slowly slowed down, as if after hesitating for a moment, it finally mustered up the courage, drove forward, and stopped side by side with her car.

The driver did not get out of the car. The passenger window slowly rolled down and the driver shouted, "Put down the window. I have something to say to you!"

Gu Ranle sat quietly, pretending not to hear anything.

"Did you hear me!"

The driver shouted a few more times unwillingly, his voice sounding a little more impatient, but still got no response.

Finally, he lost his patience and pushed the car door open with a bang. He strode to Gu Ranle's car and knocked hard on the car window with his rough hands, trying to get her attention.

Gu Ranle's eyes were as cold as an ice-covered lake, and she was unmoved by the noise outside the window.

The other party's patience was gradually worn out, and anger began to spread on his face. He increased his strength, and each knock was accompanied by a slight vibration of the car window. The toughness of the bulletproof glass seemed to silently mock his powerlessness.

Finally, anger broke through the shackles of reason, and the man suddenly pulled out the knife that was shining with cold light from his waist. The sound of the blade hitting the car window was crisp and harsh.

Gu Ranle had already seen the knife tucked into his waistband and was just waiting for him to take it out.

In this way, if she beats someone to a disability, she can give a more legitimate reason when the police come.

Gu Ranle looked at the time. Twenty minutes had passed since she called the police. It was about time.

She unbuckled her seat belt and pushed open the car door while the man outside was bending over and looking through the window.

With the help of this sudden force, the car door hit the man's face hard. With a heart-wrenching scream, he lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground.

The knife in his hand flew out due to inertia and lay quietly beside Gu Ranle's wheel, losing its edge.

At this time, Gu Ranle jumped out of the car calmly, and the sound of closing the car door was crisp and powerful.

She walked slowly to the curled up figure, each step she took exuding the aura of a strong person.

Those eyes, calm and sharp, finally fixed on the face stained with blood and distorted with pain.

Without any hesitation, Gu Ranle suddenly raised his leg and kicked the face with the force of thunder. His movements were quick and decisive, without any drag.

"what--"

A heart-wrenching scream pierced the night sky, but was quickly swallowed up by the thick darkness around it, leaving only a slight trembling echo, proving the reality and cruelty of the scene just now.

Gu Ranle did not stop at this. Instead, he launched a series of precise kicks, as dense and powerful as raindrops. Each kick landed accurately on the opponent's soft spot, until the man could only curl up into a ball, almost exhausted the strength to groan, breathing in more than exhaling, and completely lost the ability to resist.

After completing all this, she did not leave in a hurry. Instead, she leaned against the car body in an almost provocative posture, with an ambiguous smile on the corner of her mouth. Her eyes penetrated the night and were fixed directly on the back seat of the black car next to her.

Although the car windows were closed, blocking her view, Gu Ranle's keen intuition told her that there were unknown secrets hidden there, as well as an observer who was reluctant to show up.

Time passed slowly in silence, and a tense feeling filled the air.

Suddenly, the sound of sirens came from far away, breaking the depressing silence.

As if it was some kind of signal, the rear window of the black car slowly lowered, revealing a man's face. The face looked particularly complex and difficult to distinguish under the interweaving of the night and the dim lights inside the car.

Gu Ranle looked at him, and their eyes met in the night sky.

A silent contest.

The sirens are getting closer.

The man finally gave in, and although his body was still sitting stiffly in the driver's seat, his voice contained a hint of imperceptible compromise.

"Le Le, I'm your fourth uncle."

"Four Nine?" Gu Ranle shook her head. "I've never heard of him, but I don't know him."

Fourth uncle: “…”

The corner of Fourth Uncle's mouth twitched, obviously not expecting her to react like this.

He tried to regulate his breathing, trying to make his tone sound calmer.

"Lele, I'm your uncle."

Gu Ranle shook his head again, "I don't know him."

Fourth uncle clenched his hands and tried his best to hold back, "Didn't we have lunch together at your grandfather's house yesterday at noon?"

Gu Ranle said "Oh" lightly, without any expression on her face.

At this moment, the gentleness and elegance that Fourth Uncle had deliberately maintained was like window paper torn by the cold wind, revealing cracks.

He never thought that he would feel unprecedented frustration and embarrassment in front of such a young junior.

Anger and embarrassment intertwined, making his expression complicated and difficult to read.

"Gu Ranle, do you think that now that you have grandpa backing you up, you can act recklessly and ignore anyone?"

There was a bit of suppressed anger in Fourth Uncle's words. He tried to use the authority of an elder to intimidate the girl in front of him who seemed harmless but was actually giving him a headache.

However, Gu Ranle just looked at him quietly, with a half-smile on her lips. Her dark eyes were like the deep night sky, making it impossible to see to the bottom.

"you……"

Fourth uncle wanted to say something else, but suddenly fell silent.

His sight was gripped by those dark eyes. All his anger and questions were swallowed up by that invisible force, leaving only a dry gasp in his throat.

It was as if an invisible hand was strangling his throat, preventing him from uttering a single word.

She is obviously a girl in her twenties, but she gives people a strong sense of oppression.

This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable.

The sound of sirens pierced the night sky, and several police cars roared in like a storm and stopped on the side of the road. The sound of tires rubbing against the ground was sharp and rapid.

The car door opened, and several policemen quickly got out. They looked around seriously, and the leading policeman asked loudly, "Who called the police just now and said there was a robbery here?"

"It's me." Gu Ranle raised her hand without hesitation, her voice clear and firm.

The car door next to him slowly opened, and Fourth Uncle walked out with a slightly embarrassed look on his face. He hurriedly stepped forward and explained to the police:

"Comrade police officer, this is really a misunderstanding. I am her uncle and she is my niece. The child and I had a little quarrel, but I didn't expect it would alarm you."

"Misunderstanding?" Gu Ranle raised a faint smile, which was full of sarcasm. "Uncle? He forced me to get out of the car with a knife. This is a big misunderstanding! If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would probably be lying in the hospital now."

As she spoke, she gently turned sideways and pointed to the long knife that was shining with cold light next to the wheel not far away.

Finally, Gu Ranle, her fourth uncle, and the driver lying on the ground were all taken to the police station.

When Gu Ranle saw Fu Hanting at the police station, she grinned at him.

This smile almost blinded Fu Hanting's eyes.

"Brother, I was just thinking about calling my private lawyer and asking him to fly over to save the situation overnight. I didn't expect you to show up at such a timely moment. You are simply my guardian angel, descending from the sky to save me from the dire situation."

Hearing this, Fu Hanting's mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he held it back and uttered a word lightly: "Let's go."

Gu Ranle immediately stood up and followed him.

As soon as she walked out of the room, Gu Ranle met her fourth uncle's eyes unexpectedly.

She smiled slightly, with a hint of provocation and pride in her smile, then gently tugged at the corner of Fu Hanting's clothes and said, "Brother, there is something I need to tell you. This man wanted to steal your treasure 'Xiao Hei', and his men almost destroyed 'Xiao Hei'. He has to pay compensation."

"Really?" Fu Hanting looked at his fourth uncle with a cold look in his eyes, "Then how much do you think Lele should pay?"

Gu Ranle thought for a moment and said, "At least 10 million."

"Well, I'll listen to you. 20 million."

Gu Ranle: “…”

Fourth uncle: “…”

Fu Hanting came directly from the company. His assistant drove the car. He let the assistant go and drove "Xiao Hei" himself to take Gu Ranle back to the Luo family.

Inside the car, Gu Ranle leaned back in the soft seat and sighed softly, as if even the air was filled with a hint of impatience.

"Oh, it's so annoying. There are people looking for trouble everywhere. Do I have a face that is easy to be bullied?"

She muttered half to herself, half seriously.

Fu Hanting tilted his head to look at her, "Do you have a wrong perception of yourself?"

Gu Ranle turned to look at him.

She never asked Gu Xiaohei about Fu Hanting because she wanted to maintain some mystery.

It’s hard to describe the feeling this man gave her.

He looked somewhat gloomy and indifferent, but it was like a mask and the face underneath the mask did not seem to be his real face.

There seemed to be a layer of fog on his face, which could not be seen clearly even after being removed layer by layer.

"Fu Hanting, I'm very curious about what kind of environment you grew up in. You didn't grow up in the Luo family, did you?"

"Ah."

Fu Hanting responded indifferently, obviously not intending to delve into the topic.

Gu Ranle didn't intend to ask any more questions and lowered his head to look at his phone.

Song Yu sent a picture about Li Shenzhi half an hour ago.

Li Shenzhi lay on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, naked, with needles all over his body.

But the angle of the photo is very clever, and the private parts are not exposed.

[I am as straight as steel: Do you see any difference?]

Gu Ranle clicked on the picture again.

Coincidentally, Fu Hanting turned around to talk to her.

"..."

Fu Hanting averted his gaze and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

[The five elements are lacking in virtue but not in money: No.]

[I am as straight as steel: He lost weight. He said he lost his appetite after not seeing you for a few days. He lost five pounds.]

[The five elements lack morality but not money: Uncle, if you have nothing to do, just go take a shower and go to bed.]

After locking the phone, Gu Ranle turned her head to look at Fu Hanting, "Brother, do you have something to tell me?"

"It's about tomorrow's arrangements. Your family is coming over, and I plan to put them up at my home. Is that appropriate?"

"Will it be too troublesome? After all, there are so many people." Gu Ranle was a little worried.

"It's not a problem. The Luo family has plenty of space."

"That's great, thank you, brother."

Fu Hanting asked again: "And Li Shenzhi, where does he live?"

"He can just stay in a hotel."

Fu Hanting's brows slightly frowned, but then returned to normal, "Okay."

As the two were chatting, Gu Ranle's phone suddenly rang. An unfamiliar number popped up on the screen, and the address showed as Gu Cheng.

She frowned slightly, but still picked up the phone.

"Bao, why did you blacklist me again?"

Li Shenzhi's voice, with a hint of grievance, came from the receiver of the phone.

Gu Ranle put on headphones and said bluntly: "Of course I'm annoyed with you, what else do you think it could be?"

"Baby, did I do something wrong? If you are annoyed by me, tell me and I will change it, right away!"

Gu Ranle said without hesitation: "Simple, speak less, don't speak if you can. If you can be mute, it would be perfect."

"Bao, you can't be so cruel to me!"

"If I'm not cruel to you, I'm torturing myself." Gu Ranle changed the subject, "Bring a few more bodyguards tomorrow."
